Merge branch 'mg/killed-merge' into maint

Killing "git merge --edit" before the editor returns control left
the repository in a state with MERGE_MSG but without MERGE_HEAD,

Merge branch 'tb/apply-with-crlf' into maintJunio C Hamano Sun, 10 Sep 2017 08:02:55 +0000 (17:02 +0900)

Merge branch 'tb/apply-with-crlf' into maint

"git apply" that is used as a better "patch -p1" failed to apply a
taken from a file with CRLF line endings to a file with CRLF line
endings. The root cause was because it misused convert_to_git()
that tried to do "safe-crlf" processing by looking at the index
entry at the same path, which is a nonsense---in that mode, "apply"
is not working on the data in (or derived from) the index at all.
This has been fixed.

* tb/apply-with-crlf:
apply: file commited with CRLF should roundtrip diff and apply
convert: add SAFE_CRLF_KEEP_CRLF

Merge branch 'cc/subprocess-handshake-missing-capabilities' into maint

When handshake with a subprocess filter notices that the process
asked for an unknown capability, Git did not report what program
the offending subprocess was running. This has been corrected.

We may want a follow-up fix to tighten the error checking, though.

* cc/subprocess-handshake-missing-capabilities:

"git svn" used with "--localtime" option did not compute the tz

"git am -s" has been taught that some input may end with a trailer

an extra blank line before adding a new sign-off in such a case.

Merge branch 'ma/pager-per-subcommand-action' into... Junio C Hamano Sun, 10 Sep 2017 08:02:48 +0000 (17:02 +0900)

Merge branch 'ma/pager-per-subcommand-action' into maint

The "tag.pager" configuration variable was useless for those who
actually create tag objects, as it interfered with the use of an
editor. A new mechanism has been introduced for commands to enable
pager depending on what operation is being carried out to fix this,
and then "git tag -l" is made to run pager by default.

If this works out OK, I think there are low-hanging fruits in
other commands like "git branch" that outputs long list in one mode
while taking input in another.

* ma/pager-per-subcommand-action:
git.c: ignore pager.* when launching builtin as dashed external
tag: change default of `pager.tag` to "on"
tag: respect `pager.tag` in list-mode only
t7006: add tests for how git tag paginates

vcs-svn: move remaining repo_tree functions to fast_export.h

These used to be for manipulating the in-memory repo_tree structure,
but nowadays they are convenience wrappers to handle a few git-vs-svn
mismatches:

1. Git does not track empty directories but Subversion does. When
looking up a path in git that Subversion thinks exists and finding
nothing, we can safely assume that the path represents a
directory. This is needed when a later Subversion revision
modifies that directory.

2. Subversion allows deleting a file by copying. In Git fast-import
we have to handle that more explicitly as a deletion.

These are details of the tool's interaction with git fast-import.
Move them to fast_export.c, where other such details are handled.

This way the function names do not start with a repo_ prefix that
would clash with the repository object introduced in
v2.14.0-rc0~38^2~16 (repository: introduce the repository object,
2017-06-22) or an svn_ prefix that would clash with libsvn (in case
someone wants to link this code with libsvn some day).

merge: save merge state earlier

If the `git merge` process is killed while waiting for the editor to
finish, the merge state is lost but the prepared merge msg and tree is kept.
So, a subsequent `git commit` creates a squashed merge even when the
user asked for proper merge commit originally.

Demonstrate the problem with a test crafted after the in t7502. The test
requires EXECKEEPSPID (thus does not run under MINGW).

Save the merge state earlier (in the non-squash case) so that it does
not get lost. This makes the test pass.

prepare_to_commit() cannot be reached in the non-squash case:
It is called by merge_trivial() and finish_automerge() only, but the

If option_commit is not set, the code in cmd_merge() uses a fake
conflict return code (ret=1) to avoid writing the tree, which also
avoids setting automerge_was_ok (just as in the proper ret==1 case), so
that finish_automerge() is not called.

apply: file commited with CRLF should roundtrip diff... Torsten Bögershausen Sat, 19 Aug 2017 11:28:01 +0000 (13:28 +0200)

apply: file commited with CRLF should roundtrip diff and apply

When a file had been commited with CRLF but now .gitattributes say
"* text=auto" (or core.autocrlf is true), the following does not
roundtrip, `git apply` fails:

printf "Added line\r\n" >>file &&
git diff >patch &&
git checkout -- . &&
git apply patch

Before applying the patch, the file from working tree is converted
into the index format (clean filter, CRLF conversion, ...). Here,
when commited with CRLF, the line endings should not be converted.

Note that `git apply --index` or `git apply --cache` doesn't call
convert_to_git() because the source material is already in index
format.

Analyze the patch if there is a) any context line with CRLF, or b)
if any line with CRLF is to be removed. In this case the patch file
`patch` has mixed line endings, for a) it looks like this:

diff --git a/one b/one
index 533790e..c30dea8 100644
--- a/one
+++ b/one
@@ -1 +1,2 @@
a\r
+b\r

And for b) it looks like this:

diff --git a/one b/one
index 533790e..485540d 100644
--- a/one
+++ b/one
@@ -1 +1 @@
-a\r
+b\r

If `git apply` detects that the patch itself has CRLF, (look at the
line " a\r" or "-a\r" above), the new flag crlf_in_old is set in
"struct patch" and two things will happen:

- read_old_data() will not convert CRLF into LF by calling
convert_to_git(..., SAFE_CRLF_KEEP_CRLF);
- The WS_CR_AT_EOL bit is set in the "white space rule",
CRLF are no longer treated as white space.

While at there, make it clear that read_old_data() in apply.c knows
what it wants convert_to_git() to do with respect to CRLF. In fact,
this codepath is about applying a patch to a file in the filesystem,
which may not exist in the index, or may exist but may not match
what is recorded in the index, or in the extreme case, we may not
even be in a Git repository. If convert_to_git() peeked at the
index while doing its work, it *would* be a bug.

Pass NULL instead of &the_index to convert_to_git() to make sure we
catch future bugs to clarify this.

Update the test in t4124: split one test case into 3:

- Detect the " a\r" line in the patch
- Detect the "-a\r" line in the patch
- Use LF in repo and CLRF in the worktree.

This is confusing because a ref points to an object but not vice versa,

In handshake_capabilities() we use warning() when a capability

On the contrary if we cannot write a packet from this function,

t1002: stop using sum(1)René Scharfe Mon, 14 Aug 2017 20:16:34 +0000 (22:16 +0200)

t1002: stop using sum(1)

sum(1) is a command for calculating checksums of the contents of files.
It was part of early editions of Unix ("Research Unix", 1972/1973, [1]).
cksum(1) appeared in 4.4BSD (1993) as a replacement [2], and became part
of POSIX.1-2008 [3]. OpenBSD 5.6 (2014) removed sum(1).

We only use sum(1) in t1002 to check for changes in three files. On
MinGW we use md5sum(1) instead. We could switch to the standard command
cksum(1) for all platforms; MinGW comes with GNU coreutils now, which
provides sum(1), cksum(1) and md5sum(1). Use our standard method for
checking for file changes instead: test_cmp.

It's more convenient because it shows differences nicely, it's faster on
MinGW because we have a special implementation there based only on
shell-internal commands, it's simpler as it allows us to avoid stripping
out unnecessary entries from the checksum file using grep(1), and it's
more consistent with the rest of the test suite.

We already compare changed files with their expected new contents using
diff(1), so we don't need to check with "test_must_fail test_cmp" if
they differ from their original state. A later patch could convert the
direct diff(1) calls to test_cmp as well.

With all sum(1) calls gone, remove the MinGW-specific implementation
from test-lib.sh as well.

stash: prevent warning about null bytes in input

The `no_changes` function calls the `untracked_files` function through
command substitution. `untracked_files` will return null bytes because it
runs ls-files with the '-z' option.

Bash since version 4.4 warns about these null bytes. As they are not
required for the test that is being done, make sure `untracked_files`
does not output null bytes when not required.

This is achieved by adding a parameter to the `untracked_files` function to
specify wither `-z` should be passed to ls-files or not.

two warnings:

merge: use skip_prefix()

Get rid of a magic string length constant by using skip_prefix() instead
of starts_with().

hashcmp: use memcmp instead of open-coded loop

In 1a812f3a70 (hashcmp(): inline memcmp() by hand to
optimize, 2011-04-28), it was reported that an open-coded
loop outperformed memcmp() for comparing sha1s.

Discussion[1] a few years later in 2013 showed that this
depends on your libc's version of memcmp(). In particular,
glibc 2.13 optimized their memcmp around 2011. Here are
current timings with glibc 2.24 (best-of-five, on
linux.git):

[before this patch, open-coded]
$ time git rev-list --objects --all
real 0m35.357s
user 0m35.016s
sys 0m0.340s

[after this patch, memcmp]
real 0m32.930s
user 0m32.630s
sys 0m0.300s

Now that we've had 6 years for that version of glibc to
make its way onto people's machines, it's worth revisiting
our benchmarks and switching to memcmp().

It may be that there are other non-glibc systems where
memcmp() isn't as well optimized. But since our single data
point in favor of open-coding was on a now-ancient glibc, we
should probably assume the system memcmp is good unless
proven otherwise. We may end up with a SLOW_MEMCMP Makefile
knob, but we can hold off on that until we actually find
such a system in practice.

apply: remove prefix_length member from apply_stateRené Scharfe Wed, 9 Aug 2017 15:54:46 +0000 (17:54 +0200)

apply: remove prefix_length member from apply_state

Use a NULL-and-NUL check to see if we have a prefix and consistently use
C string functions on it instead of storing its length in a member of
struct apply_state. This avoids strlen() calls and simplifies the code.

builtin/add: add detail to a 'cannot chmod' error messageRamsay Jones Wed, 9 Aug 2017 00:51:23 +0000 (01:51 +0100)

builtin/add: add detail to a 'cannot chmod' error message

In addition to adding the missing newline, add the x-ecutable bit
'mode change' character to the error message. This message now has
the same form as similar messages output by 'update-index'.
